The application notes include recommended starting dilutions; optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user. Application Abreviews Notes ICC/IF 1/1000. WB 1/1000 - 1/5000. Predicted molecular weight: 226 kDa. Target Function Mediates the voltage-dependent sodium ion permeability of excitable membranes. Assuming opened or closed conformations in response to the voltage difference across the membrane, the protein forms a sodium-selective channel through which Na(+) ions may pass in accordance with 1 their electrochemical gradient. Sequence similarities Belongs to the sodium channel (TC 1.A.1.10) family. Nav1.3/SCN3A subfamily. Contains 1 IQ domain. Domain The sequence contains 4 internal repeats, each with 5 hydrophobic segments (S1,S2,S3,S5,S6) and one positively charged segment (S4). Segments S4 are probably the voltage-sensors and are characterized by a series of positively charged amino acids at every third position. Post-translational modifications May be ubiquitinated by NEDD4L; which would promote its endocytosis. Phosphorylation at Ser-1501 by PKC in a highly conserved cytoplasmic loop slows inactivation of the sodium channel and reduces peak sodium currents. Cellular localization Membrane. Anti-SCN3A antibody images ICC/IF image of ab65164 stained SHSY5Y cells. The cells were 4% formaldehyde fixed (10 min) and then incubated in 1%BSA / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h to permeabilise the cells and block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The cells were then incubated with the antibody (ab65164, 1/1000 dilution) overnight at +4°C. The secondary antibody (green) was Alexa Fluor® 488 goat anti-rabbit IgG (H+L) used at a 1/1000 dilution for 1h. Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Alexa Fluor® 594 WGA was used to label SCN3A antibody (ab65164) plasma membranes (red) at a 1/200 dilution for 1h. DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (blue) at a concentration of 1.43µM.
